A real-time road pricing system: The case of a two-link parallel network

A real-time road pricing system in the case of a two-link parallel network is proposed in this paper. The system that is based on a combination of Dynamic Programming and Neural Networks makes “on-line” decisions about road toll values. In the first phase of the proposed model, the best road toll sequences during certain time period are calculated off-line for many different patterns of vehicle arrivals. These toll sequences are computed using Dynamic Programming approach. In the second phase, learning from vehicle arrival patterns and the corresponding optimal toll sequences, neural network is trained. The results obtained during on-line tests are close to the best solution obtained off-line assuming that the arrival pattern is known.

一种基于神经网络的模糊推理方法

对于Zadeh的模糊关系合成法则（简称CRI方法），选择一个适宜蕴涵关系矩阵是至关重要的。通常蕴涵关系矩阵的元素值是通过一个所构造的数学表达式计算的，或是由领域专家凭经验直接给出。然而，有时，特别是对于后一种情形，CRI法不能满足模糊推理最基本的一致性要求。文章构造了一个神经网络用于模糊推理，新方法不仅是CRI方法的推广，而且远比CRI方法易于满足推理的一致性要求。得益于神经网络的长处，新方法具有灵活性、可调性。文章给出了权值的具取值法。

The polar cluster like behavior in Ti substituted BaZrO3 ceramics

In this paper we report the evolution of the polar cluster like behavior with the incorporation of Ti⁴⁺ ion in BaZrO₃ Ceramics. Dielectric behavior of BaZr_xTi_(1−x)O₃ (x = 1.00, 0.95, 0.90, 0.85) ceramics is studied in the temperature range from 300 to 30 K. Polar cluster like behavior becomes more prominent with the increase in content of Ti⁴⁺ ion. The dielectric relaxation is analyzed by Vogel–Fulcher relation and Arrhenius law. Frequency dependence of dielectric constant and low loss tangent of these materials can be useful for the potential applications at low temperature.     

Action strategies for strengthening industrial clusters in southern Taiwan

For the past decade, the Taiwanese government has applied the policy of “North heavy, South light” to put more emphasis on development in northern Taiwan instead of the south. This has resulted in uneven development between the northern and southern regions, especially when introducing, developing, and supporting high technology and resource allocation in education. Industry clusters have become the centerpiece of economic development policy in many parts of the world. In this study, it is assumed that there are two categories of less-advantaged regions in Taiwan: (1) older industrialized regions dominated by labor-intensive/capital-intensive industries, and (2) industrial regions that have merged with potential high-technology small firms but still lack infrastructure. This study discusses the following points: (a) How do industrial clusters work in action? (b) What barriers do less-advantaged industrial clusters face? (c) What action strategies promote less-advantaged industrial clusters?     

Predicting Youth Access to Tobacco: The Role of Youth Versus Store-Clerk Behavior and Issues of Ecological Validity.

Twenty-one 15- to 17-year-olds attempted to purchase cigarettes in 232 stores in the manner that confederates typically do in access studies, as well as in the manipulative ways (e.g., lying about their ages) that youth smokers do, thereby modeling youth access to tobacco within versus outside of studies, respectively. Youth typical-research versus manipulative behavior was contrasted with clerk behavior (requests for youth ID cards) to examine the relative contributions of both to youth access to tobacco for the 1st time. Results revealed that clerk behavior was the strongest predictor of cigarette sales to youth and hence underscore the need for interventions with merchants. Sales nonetheless were higher under youth-manipulative conditions and thereby highlight the low ecological validity of access research.
